The mYouth Project (Mobile, Young, Opportunity, Unity, Technology, Help) was aimed at providing and developing innovative actions that will enable young individuals gain high skills, when it comes to mobile applications development that solve local issues for youth by providing them with decent employment opportunities. Coding is no longer a skill for professional programmers, nevertheless, the ability to code, like the ability to read and write, is becoming an essential part of fluency in today’s society. Knowing how to code clearly comes as a valuable job skill, as reports and indicators worldwide show that the number of jobs for programmers and computer scientists is growing rapidly. These skills will be very much desired further on in the future as many jobs of the future, still to be introduced in the world, would require it as invaluable asset.
